A 'book' was first used on the American version of the programme, which launched on US television in 1952. However, as each book is unique, you don’t have to include messages, you can just tell the story in your own words – this can be your story that tells your tale for future generations, or someone else’s story that you want to honour and remember. As gifts they are a great way of showing people how special they are, and as a story of your own life they are a fascinating reminder for your children, grandchildren and further generations.

It was at school that Eamonn developed a passion for sport, in particular, boxing. He joined St Andrews boxing club in Dublin and became a successful amateur boxer, winning the All-Ireland Juvenile title.

He compered Telefís Éireann's opening night broadcast on New Year's Eve 1961.

It was hosted by Eamonn Andrews from 1955 until 1964, and then from 1969 until his death in 1987. Michael Aspel then took up the role of host until the show ended in 2003. It briefly returned in 2007 as a one-off special presented by Trevor McDonald. Know someone who’s commemorating a significant landmark?
